How can I travel most easily to you in Råstrand Lappland?
⬇️
The distance from Malmö in the southernmost part of Sweden to our house is approximately 1500 kilometers.
The fastest and most convenient way to reach us is, of course, by air. A flight ticket to Lapland costs barely more than refueling your car twice and is therefore highly recommended.
Below, you’ll find some more information on where you can find and book tickets, but when the time comes, we’ll be happy to help you find the most suitable flights. We, of course, pick up and drop off our guests at Lycksele Airport.

How do I fly most easily to you?
⬇️
Depending on your place of residence and preferences, you can fly to Arlanda Airport in Stockholm.
Then, you take the domestic flight from Arlanda to Lycksele in Lapland with the airline Amapola. Lycksele Airport is the closest to us (100km).
In the winter package, the transfer to and from Lycksele Airport is included in the price. You can book this domestic flight at https://amapola.nu
You can also fly from Stockholm to Umeå or Skellefteå and travel from there by rental car. Even though these airports are a bit further from us, sometimes the tickets are very cheap and therefore definitely worth considering. We are happy to help you book the best flight tickets for your needs.

Can I drive my own car to you?
⬇️
If you want to drive your own car all the way to us, that’s certainly possible, but make sure you have really good winter tires and drive carefully the further north you go, as we have many wild animals on the roads in Lapland. Driving from Stockholm to Råstrand takes about 9-10 hours.
You can find Råstrand on Google Maps here MAP.
